Previously, the record-high for this card was $102,000 on July 26th, 2021, via Heritage Auction. Having just eight public sales all-time, the July 2021 sale was the last time this card sold publicly before surfacing last month. Between the two sales, Yount’s rookie card has increased 49.51% ($50,500) in nearly six years, according to Card Ladder.

This card nearly never comes available for purchase, as there are just six total copies in existence that have been graded a PSA 10. Yount’s rookie card in a PSA 9, is relatively easier to find, with the population being 278. The price discrepancy between the two grades is vast, with the all-high for a PSA 9 being $5,200 on August 11th, 2021. This means the PSA 9 serves as 3.4% of the PSA 10 in the eyes of collectors.

The 1975 Topps Baseball set has a mixed review from collectors. The set features a wide range of colorful borders, featuring 17 different distinct color patterns, ranging from a bright yellow to a muddy brown, and though eye-catching, it’s not a favorite of all. Yount’s #223 rookie card is one of the most recognizable cards in the set, following suit of the other Hall of Fame rookies included in the set: George Brett (#228), Jim Rice (#616), and Gary Carter (#620). Both Yount and Brett’s rookie cards are included in the base set as a solo-player feature, though for the other HOF rookies, they are in the range of #614-624, which features four players to one card.

Yount is the Brewers’ all-time leader in games, hits, at-bats, plate appearances, runs, double, triples, runs batted in, and walks. During his 20-year career, Yount racked up the accolades: two-time AL MVP, three-time All-Star, Gold Glove winner, three-time Silver Slugger, and member of the 3,000 hit club. Yount was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1999.
